Happy with this policy on the one condition that the leading lights of these French learned societies agree to sit next to my children on every long train journey and discuss literature with them.

anyway when asking yourself about “hard-won female spaces” I think it’s always useful to wonder whether it’s really a freedom to be there or whether - given that separate is never equal - it’s another “place men keep their women” history never really went anywhere.

There's not a single crime in the history of the UK that would have been prevented by a bathroom bill. Not one Bathroom bills aren't about safety, they're about trying to exclude LGBT people from public life. That's it

that actor’s name, I’ve forgotten it, what is it again

This whole 'your great grandma wouldn't have done it, follow that path!' thing is such crap. My great grandma died of TB - probably from unpasteurised milk - aged 49 leaving behind four children.

There is no aborted fetus debris in the MMR vaccine, or in any vaccine at all. It is worth noting that the Catholic Church, one of the most staunch anti-abortion organizations in the world, has a formal policy that encourages all vaccinations.

Vaccines do not contain any fetal tissue or cells, nor do they contain any cells derived from fetal materials.

you know, we research whether the baby stroller has all the features and amenities we like, not whether it will kill the baby

Dear god let this man cook.

“And I’m like, what do you mean, you ‘do your own research’? You running a double-blind study in your living room, dawg?” - A guy walking ahead of me with his friends on a NYC sidewalk in 2021, also my favorite overheard dialogue of the entire pandemic

This "debate" about who should use what toilet doesn’t benefit anyone. It doesn’t fix the underfunding of women's refuges, NHS waiting lists leaving women in terrible pain, mums skipping meals to feed their kids. How about we get on with tackling the real issues affecting women?

I know the reason is 'The Patriarchy' but it remains baffling to me why more people aren't angrier about male violence against women and why more isn't done politically. 1/3

The chance of me being damaged in some way by a transwoman - vanishingly small. The chance of me being assaulted or murdered by a cis man - very high. 1/2 www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025...

As a member of the public, what would make me feel safe is if Labour designed policy on public safety on things that are actually happening. For example, men who want to kill women because they get their ideas from the far-right. www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025...

can't spell tariffs without ffs

Prickly Company is 99p in the UK! today only, Tuesday 29th April. Hedgehogs, community, love and secrets - lots of secrets! mybook.to/ebookprickly...

We had a fab evening celebrating our church’s patronal feast and St George’s day with Mass … and the Bishop fighting a model of a dragon in the street, obviously. #normalfornorfolk

when my doctor asks me what I've been doing at night instead of sleeping

Every single woman has to prove they are a woman now to strangers in the UK. This is what the ruling means. The oppression and regression of women's rights and bodily autonomy. It does nothing fo prevent male violence against women. I can only see it increasing.

But tell me again how rape allegations harm a man’s career prospects.

Hi! I unravelled and chewed a ball of yarn AND dug a hole in the lawn! And it’s not even 9am!

I just want to point out that George Floyd was murdered over a counterfeit $20 bill

We watched his Searching For Italy series twice - in a loop. Finished, and just went right back to the start. Were I not already hitched (and gay), I’d marry him immediately.

Perfectly Yellow Bananas Arthritis. I think that’s more of an experimental funk band formed by people who met in art school.

if you know a lot of stuff i think it is your moral duty to be kind and excited when people learn stuff for the first time. the world is full of stuff we don't know about, don't be mean

One of my all time favorite Lucas moments was when he and Coppola strong armed Fox to produce movies for Akira Kurosowa and essentially revived his career. Every Kurosowa film we have after 1980 is due to Lucas and Coppolas standing up for their fellow artist.

Solidarity with all trans, non-binary & intersex people facing the harsh and ill-considered guidance issued by the EHRC. It’s full of holes & has clearly been written without input from trans people. I will push for this to be withdrawn until thought-out guidance can be produced.

"Do you even own a black suit?"

yeah i'm also into the second meaning of UBI. unlimited breadsticks infrastructure

Begging yall to stop calling it deportation when it's done to citizens. You cannot deport a citizen. Don't normalize the idea that citizens can be deported.
